Measuring Employee Satisfaction across Locations

Once a year, we conduct our employee satisfaction survey at each of our locations in Denmark, Poland, and Australia. This is an important part of our ongoing commitment to the well-being of our employees. This year, we measured employee satisfaction through a different survey called GAIS. This was carried out in collaboration with the Danish organization “Videncenter for God Arbejdslyst”. The survey is based on seven factors: Purpose, Mastery, Balance, Achievements, Leadership, Influence, and Colleagues, all of which contribute to employee satisfaction.

Focus on the key factors influencing employee satisfaction

Focusing on job satisfaction is important to us, as it directly impacts our employees' engagement, motivation, creativity, and overall well-being. The results this year were very positive, reflecting a high level of well-being in the workplace. The overall job satisfaction score across Denmark, Poland, and Australia was 74. In Denmark and Australia, the score was 77, which is 4 points above the industry average.

The employee satisfaction survey quantifies our well-being. These figures are presented in individual reports, allowing us to identify areas for improvement to enhance the well-being of each employee. The survey results provide inspiration, knowledge, and tools specifically selected for each employee, enabling them to take concrete steps to improve their job satisfaction.

We wanted to not only measure job satisfaction but to work further with the results both individually and collectively. In addition to the survey and report, we held workshops to delve deeper into the results and the seven factors influencing job satisfaction. Videncenter for God Arbejdslyst facilitated these workshops in our various departments, which led to many new insights. Trine, People & Culture Coordinator, elaborates: “It was so valuable to work with the results from the survey in practice and get to know your colleagues’ perspectives on the different factors that impact job satisfaction”.

While each workshop emphasized different factors, one thing remains consistent across departments and at Eltwin in general: we place the utmost importance on the well-being of our employees and the employee satisfaction survey is just one of many steps we are taking in this matter.
